Tips On Writing A Good Resume

By: Jonathon Hardcastle


A good resume is worth its weight in gold. The hardest part about getting any job is getting the interview. Make a good impression first time round, and you're definitely in with a shout for the job. That's why it's important to work on your resume, and keep it continually up to date with every new development in your personal career. If you don't already have a resume, you should seriously think about drawing one up - you never know when it might come in handy.

The first thing to consider when writing any resume is your personal contact details. Make sure you list your name, date of birth where appropriate, address and contact telephone number clearly and in bold at the top of your document. Additionally, some employers like an email contact to ask any quick questions, or to get in touch with you easily. If you're going to give your email address, it is far better to set up an account bearing your name, for example john.smith@emailprovider.com.

This email address is being protected from spam bots, you need Javascript enabled to view it . Do not offer an email address that has a nickname or some other handle - this can create a very poor image of yourself, and employers will be far more satisfied with a straightforward, professional approach. If you only have a 'comic' email address, you're probably best to set up one in your name, or to avoid including it altogether.

The body of your resume should show off your personal skills and attributes. Talk about what you've done, where you've been, your experience and your qualifications at all time. Additionally, remember to tailor it to each individual position you apply for, to ensure you're only including relevant information for the employer. Think about what your employer is looking for, and think about what you can do to fit the bill. If you can tailor your application to these needs, you're giving yourself a very good chance.

Also, let personality shine through, but make it professional. When you're not being the most skilled and eligible candidate for the job, what are you doing with your time? Something extra curricular that can be tied into a skill set or mindset is a good one to include, and this can really help reflect you in a positive light.

All in all, the resume is where you get the chance to sell yourself, and if you establish a good preconception in the mind of your employer, you're fighting an easier battle at the interview.
